Syntagma Media will be launching its new Sideways Health website soon. As the title suggests it concerns itself with natural, common sense, and not so well known health regimes.
Mind games beat Alzheimer’s
Golden Age
A recent study at Tel Aviv University in Israel, tested 60 volunteers using a brain exercising computer program, MindFit, for 30 minutes, three times a week, and compared them with another 60 playing sophisticated computer games.
The results showed that although all benefited from playing on the computer, those on MindFit had better improvement in short-term learning, visual and spatial learning and focused attention. These findings are especially relevant to those of a certain age and show that exercise can stave off …
